Was it dropped? Did it come in contact with liquid?


Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version


Reboot the iPad by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.


If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings


If that doesn't work, then update iTunes on computer, backup device to iTunes, then restore the device.

If a restore doesn't fix this, then a repair is necessary.
